Case Summary:

In this case, the client that we had the opportunity to work with was a senior research scientist from China in the field of optics. Specifically, our client’s specialized research has focused on the research on fibers. His work had resulted in 26 peer-reviewed scientific articles, 1 book chapter, and about 40 presentations at national and international conferences; at the time that his case was filed, his publications had been cited at least 277 times by independent and leading researchers from prestigious institutions and organizations around the world, indicating the major significance of his work. He had also reviewed 55 manuscripts for 17 distinctive, internationally-circulated journals. His superior level of expertise was confirmed in the following quote from an independent recommender, “In my opinion, [client] is an outstanding research scientist in the field of optics and photonics who is a valuable asset to our country. Based solely on the major contributions he has made to this field, I have no doubt that [client] is a top-tier scientist” It was our goal to prove that our client qualified for classification as an Alien of Extraordinary Ability given that he sought to remain in the United States to continue work in the area of optics, and that his continued research would substantially and prospectively benefit the United States. With the proof and documentation that we provided, his case was approved in 24 days.
